Booked by 1 family in San Leandro, CA

Hi! My name is Kasey, and I'm a responsible, nurturing caregiver who genuinely enjoys working with children. I have several years of hands-on experience caring for infants and young children, and I strive to create a safe, positive, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and free to be themselves. I recently moved to Oakland and am excited to connect with local families in the area. I am CPR certified and have a valid driver's license with reliable transportation, allowing me to assist with school pick-ups, outings, and activities when needed. I love keeping children engaged through age-appropriate activities such as reading, arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, imaginative play, and educational games that encourage learning and creativity. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident and comfortable with their childcare provider, which is why I prioritize safety, open communication, reliability, and kindness in every family I work with. In addition to childcare, I'm happy to assist with light housekeeping related to the children, meal preparation, homework help, and bedtime routines. Whether you're looking for occasional babysitting, date-night coverage, or recurring care, I would love the opportunity to support your family and help your children thrive. I look forward to becoming a trusted and dependable resource for families in the Oakland community!

$30 per hour for 1 child

I'm a warm and caring individual with experience looking after kids and seniors. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Physics and a Diploma in Montessori. I'm First Aid (Pediatric First Aid CPR AED) qualified, patient, and bubbly. I love creating fun, safe environments and handling household tasks like meal prep and tidying. I'm trustworthy, responsible, and happy to make families feel at home. I enjoy building connections with the little ones, reading stories, playing games, and encouraging their curious minds. For older ones, I love chats, helping with hobbies, or just being a comforting presence. I'm flexible with hours, and I'm looking forward to caring for your family. Thank you!

“Chiamaka was once a care giver for my younger kids. She is diligent and passionate with her job. Chiamaka’s job description was less of her duties due to her unwavering care over the kids place under her care. She goes out of way teaching them by engaging them with activities to calm the kids down. My son was mostly fond of her after school care due to her professional impact on him. I would recommend her for family support, child or adult care. She is capable.”

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
